Me at 3am on a work day: "I don't even like Civ that much, just one more turn and I'll go to bed"
CIV isn't even my favorite strategy game, but I could drop everything, sit down, and play a 4-6 hour session every day if I had the time.
to be fair, with games like that, most of your logged hours are gonna be you just leaving the computer on while you go and do other stuff in between turns
This is the biggest reason I play Warhammer. I just like moving my little dolls around on a table.
Broke: "They're not toys, they're miniatures!"
Woke: "Yes, they're just toy soldiers."
Bespoke: "I just like moving my little dolls around a table."
I remember telling a guy I know while he was playing warhammer 'oh that's like chess or something right?'
He was not a happy camper.
women are allowed to do it too
same brainspace as those stupid dress up flash games
I was gonna say im different but then i remembered my warcraft obsession back in the day so it tracks.
My father showed me these games as a kid, ive been playing map strategy games since 7, i have thousands of hours in them
i despise map games... i'd much rather fly in space ships or something
But how do you navigate space without a map?
Checkmate spaetheist!
I mean I'd rather be a trillionaire but let's at least keep it in the realm of like video games.
I like Stellaris but I really can't be bothered to play it; I keep fighting to stay ahead in research but always neglect my military. Also years of playing 'last man standing' type games means I disregard the diplomacy aspect, and relations between factions is a big factor in the game.
last time I played a vibeo bame was a month ago and it was minecraft. checkmate liberals.
One of these days I'll actually play a game with my Malifaux pieces. They'll likely start falling apart mid-game, damn little skinny Gremlins. Otherwise most map games just unintentionally guilt trip me as someone who's really gotten rusty with ArcGIS.
this is a good litmus test, if people think this I know to never speak to them again
The twitter guy is trying to portray it as traditional gender role masculine activity, so this is kind of ironic. Maybe I formulated that poorly.
No, you were pretty clear. I was being snarky for, in retrospect, no good reason.
